Hello All,
I have 2 XP SP2 machines connected to a DLINK DIR-655 Wireless router. Windows Firewall is turned off.
IP Address Machine 1: 192.168.0.192 IP Address Machine 2: 192.168.0.242
Both machines are on same subnet. They cannot ping each other, thus Remote Desktop does not work either. They can however ping the router (192.168.0.1)
IF the PC's are hard wired to the router, they can communicate just fine, so this problem only occurs when using Wireless.
